The issue I think is that we (epiphany->gecko->swfdec->cairo) tried to use a
surface on a closed Display - that's the only time the surface->dpy value is
NULL. As to who's at fault, I'm not sure - I feel Cairo could be more robust
under such circumstances and I'll add some test cases to exercise Cairo, but I
feel each party should review how their graphics stack handles Display closure
with live surfaces. (For instance, there's little I can do if the Display is
closed by a second thread whilst we're attempting to use it.)
